When it comes to spooktacular halloween recipes, a mummy wrapped baked brie has to be at the top of the list. In my opinion, it’s the best halloween baked brie there is. It’s delicious, easy to make, and, above all, super cute! Plus, it’s super easy to tailor to your tastes: Just switch up the jam and/or swap out the produce you serve on the board. Bonus points for adding edible eyes!

How to Bake Mummy Brie 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Slice of the top ½-inch of brie, and set aside. Spread the jam on the bottom piece of brie. Replace the top of the brie, covering the jam.
  • Roll the puff pastry out to approximately 14 x 11 inches. Place the brie in the center of the puff pastry. Make two cuts on both long sides of the dough, from the brie to the edges, to create even thirds. Fold the middle piece on each edge over the brie.
  • Cut ¾”-wide strips into the short sides of the dough, from the brie to the edges. Stretch the strips over top of the brie to create the mummy wrap. Transfer the brie to a parchment lined baking tray.
  • In a small bowl, whisk the egg with 1 teaspoon of water. Brush the egg wash all over the pastry. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.
  • Add large edible eyes and serve warm with baguette, apples, pears, grapes, and blueberries, if using.

Jam for Mummy Baked Brie

When thinking of the best jam for a mummy baked brie, I am always going to be drawn to a dark red color for an extra spooky moody effect. I love using sour cherry jam because the tartness and acidity pair super well with the creamy brie. But if you’re looking for other options, try the red jams below…or go for a blackberry or orange color to keep with autumnal colors:

  • Raspberry jam
  • Strawberry jam
  • Cranberry jam
  • Pepper jam
  • Blackberry jam
  • Apricot jam

    COLOSAL mess, by the time the pastry browns the cheese melts too much and runs all over the place. Definitely a pintrest fail.

    1. Meg Quinn says:

      Thank you for the feedback. I added a note about putting the brie in the freezer for 10-15 min prior to adding the pastry and cooking.
